# This script is used for taking all the activatable classes from a SxS manifest
# and adding them as Extensions to an Appxmanifest.xml.
# Params:
#  - SxSManifest: The path to the SxS manifest to get the types from
#  - AppxManifestPrototype: The path to an AppxManifest.xml-style XML document to add the Extensions to
#  - SxSManifest: The path to write the updated XML doc to.
